- Synopsis
- Plot: Gordon Fleming, the owner of a faltering hazardous waste materials disposal service, takes a contract to dispose of the asbestos at the abandoned Danvers State Hospital psychiatric institution. In order to obtain the contract, he has agreed to complete the job within a week, although this timetable places great pressure on his team. As he and his four man team rush to complete the job, tensions within the group come to the surface, including Gordon’s strained relationship with his wife. One of the group, former law student Mike, becomes fascinated with listening to nine psychotherapy session tapes of a woman with multiple personality disorder that he finds as he searches through the asylum’s archives. At the same time there also appears to be someone or something lurking in the building.

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Anderson, his superb ensemble cast and inspired cinematographer Uta Briesewitz, appeal at once to the intellect and the emotions as they build suspense and tension mercilessly."
-
"You couldn't ask for a better setting for a horror movie. What you could ask for is a better script."
-
"The film isn't remotely scary. That's a shame, because it has top-notch performances"
-
"Despite the talent involved and the unbearable atmosphere of the asylum, the script is a letdown. The final resolution is more ludicrous than convincing."
-
"The film never creates any true suspense, and the bloody climax feels forced and phony."
